Note
The focus, zoom, exposure, White Balance, shutter speed and ISO sens itivity are fixed to the
settings for the first picture.
We recommend using a tripod. When it is dark, we recommend using the Self-timer for taking
pictures.
Shutter speed may slow down up to 8seconds.
The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8sec.) after taking the picture because of signal
processing. This is not a malfun ct ion.
The recorded images can be combined into panorama pictures using the soft w are
“PHOTOfunSTUDIO” on the CD-ROM (supplied).
Select this when you want to take pictures at a wedding reception, an indoor party etc.
This allows you to take pictures of people and the background with near real-life
brightness.
